Pre-Game Talk: 2019-20 Pro-Team Tank Thread - To Infinity and Beyond!

[Javaman]

I'm talking about things like Ferland and Myers not living up to expectations/contracts, the 4th line continuing to be an absolute disaster.

Whose expectations though? Lots of posters here on HF Canucks were critical of both signings from the outset for precisely what has transpired with both Myers and Ferland.

Besides, Miller has exceeded expectations which offsets that anyways, IMO.

not a playoff team since the start of November, actually not a playoff team period.

That's good, that means Benning's time as the canucks gm is limited

that's what I originally thought when we extended him for 2 years last summer, (which will make next year optional for ownership to keep him or not) so you think it's a probation period which is this season, but we extended him for another 3 seasons shortly after July 1st, like wth.

Still makes me want to puke

If we’re a bubble team like 10-14 then Benning will stay as ownership will believe we’re on the cusp of breaking through (ownership isn’t very smart) Benning is probably gone if we have a bottom 8 finish.

His metaphor essentially boils down to "support the troops (in this case, the canucks) at all costs without any criticism" and it's absolutely insane.

You can support the troops, doesn't mean you can't impeach the president for making poor decisions.

There wasn't anything very important going on on the out-of-town scoreboard tonight, but there were a couple of potentially useful results.

Tomorrow night is going to be interesting.

 

[y2kcanucks]

Another loss tonight would be nice

 

[Diogenes92]

Did the captaincy actually turn Bo into a plug who is good at faceoffs?

 

[y2kcanucks]

f*** this shit. An undeserved 2 points

 

[ddawg1950]

**** this ****. An undeserved 2 points

Like a knife to the gut.

 

[Pavel96]

that's how these clowns roll

 

[lawrence]

Like a knife to the gut.

make up for the undeserved 0 points vs the laffs.

 

[Grumbler]

What a joke. Literally clowns coaching this team.

 

[valkynax]

**** this ****. An undeserved 2 points

was pretty much all on the goalie.

looks like Markstrom gonna get wasted again from all the free beer and shots.

 

[VanillaCoke]

These wins are very annoying.

 

[y2kcanucks]

They were outplayed by the Leafs

 

[4Twenty]

These wins are very annoying.

ON the plus side, it's a non regulation win, which is the first tie breaker after points.

11 regulation wins in 32 games.

11-12-9

And people accuse us of negativity ...

 

[timw33]

Refs apologized to Staal saying the Aho goal should have counted.

Cool.

 

[Lindgren]

That was the perfect result in the Dallas/Vegas game.

 

[dwarf]

Big game tonight. Losing to the sharks could start the slide we need.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Sharks are not very good unfortunately so I cant see dell stealing the game for them like markstrom has been.

 

[Hyzer]

Already 1-0 for the Sharks.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

We're all in for a stealth Stanley cup run to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the franchise. It's important to Mr Aquilini that we take a run at it this year even if we have to move another first at the deadline.

We're all in!
